You don't really need to repeat my words back at me.

In his words, he said:

Reveal hidden contents

it'll be some hours, but I'll send you the configs I've been using.

Which, oftentimes (not always), means that in a private message. I requested they be posted in the forum.

then send him a private message rather than repeating the obvious I already asked for

@4x4cheesecake do the shaders need recreating for 1.5.1?

So far, it doesn't seem to be necessary, I just don't know if this bundle already got the latest update of the postprocessing stack (27. Nov 2017)

edit: to contribute to the ongoing discussion about changing settings ingame: there are already some code pieces for an UI but it is far away from beeing finished. Anyway, you can create multiple configs and switch between them ingame (keybindings are set in the 'Settings.cfg' of KS3P). I'm not quiet sure if it is possible to edit and switch to a different profile while the game is running but you can def. use many profiles with minor differences in the settings for one shader and check the results ingame. It will save some time

I'm still busy with my mod updates, but I'm thinking about looking at this to see if a UI can be added to allow adjusting and changing during the game.

Jeeze, dude. Settle down.

LGG can be accused of a few things, I'm sure, but filling the forum with unnecessary posts is hardly one of them. [edit: adding additional here]

Looking at them again, I basically hid the components that caused the most darkening, fuzzing, or white blow-out (bloom) effects. The rest, I dialed down by a notch or two, but without any real clear guidance or plan. I *did* leave lots of stuff active for the Space Center view, since I assume it's from a camera mounted high atop a nearby radio antenna, and has a smeary, weather-protected enclosure.

I'm making a collection of various configs for this. So far I've gotten configs from the thread, from the following:

@4x4cheesecake, @Beetlecat, @Leandro Basi, @Rocket In My Pocket and @Jim Meillente.

I'm going to make these available, if you have one to contribute, please send it to me with a brief description of it's features.

Keep in mind that my config is just an example for various settings/how to add effects in the config and actually not meant to be used as a real config

While I can't speak for KS3P's plugin code, I can say with certainty that the actual post-processing effects (at the shader level) will allow for in-game real-time adjustments. For some of the effects there may be additional pre-configuration / re-configuration needed for some changes, but the shaders themselves have no issue with parameter changes.

It contains all settings for each pp effect available in this mod (if I didn't miss one^^) but I had some troubles to find values for everything so it is not complete. For example: I still have no clue how to configure the color wheels for color grading since the unity editor uses some kind of 'color picker' for this.

Almost every line got a comment, containing the value type, an example value (if someone doesn't know what a boolean, float, etc...is), sometimes even min. and max. values if there are necessary. So if you want to add an effect which isn't available in the default config, you can take a look on my file and get the correct config node

The White Guardian · November 3, 2018

Sorry for my absence, everyone. Besides having lost interest in KSP for a while, I also had some problems to sort out that prevented me from giving this mod a proper lookover.

I'm back now, and will continue working on the mod. Allow me to list a few things being worked on.

Spoiler

- Full KSP 1.5.1 compatibility.

- A script that allows for exporting PostProcessingBundles from the Unity Editor to a .txt file, in a format that KS3P can read.

- Tweaked default config so the effects are less in-your-face and more subtle.

- Shaders recompiled against recent Unity versions to fix some exceptions.

- (hopefully) OpenGL fixed.

- Better documentation on what each effect does, and how taxing it is.

- Adjusting camera settings such as FOV.

- (Possibly) increasing shadow distance.

- (Possibly) editing other quality settings that are not accessible by default

I'm also working on an in-game editor, but I have no idea how mods like KittopiaTech and Scatterer handle in-game editing, so that's going to take a while to complete. Lastly, I'm looking into forcing the cameras to use a specific rendering path. If possible, I may add support for it. HOWEVER, games are usually built around a specific rendering path, so changing the rendering method from Forward to Deferred or vice versa can have terrible consequences. I'll test it beforehand to see if any such problems occur, but I may not notice everything.

So, if I add such a feature, use it with caution.

...

Okay, that wasn't really 'lastly'. I have one more thing to reveal.

Spoiler

I'm working on some custom shaders to allow for movie-like effects, for people who make KSP cinematics. Things such as desaturation, CCTV overlay and night vision are what I'm looking into specifically.

AAAAND I'm going to check if it is possible to tie some post-processing effects to certain planets and have them change depending on altitude. Think about the screen turning increasingly purple on Eve, or the colors becoming cooler on Vall or Eeloo.

When using the cutaway views, bloom on engine exhausts are removed, even if bloom settings are equal for both flight and IVA.

Drew Kerman · November 9, 2018

great to have you back @The White Guardian!

One thing I didn't see in your ToDo list was to add DX11+ capability. Is this possible? Right now forcing DX11 doesn't work, and that means we can't use this mod with Textures Unlimited for some truly great visual treats.

TU works just fine with OpenGL (and is in fact what I use for development/testing). No clue if KS3P works with openGL...

It doesn't, but that is one of the things TWG did list in his ToDo of fixes being worked on. So okay that could lead to a means of using KS3P with TU. Good to know!

The mod folder contains a 'Config.cfg' with all settings for each visual effect, also the lens dirt. To turn it off, look for these lines:

//Lens dirt settings
Dirt_Enabled = true
Dirt_Tex = KS3P/Textures/LensDirt02
Dirt_Intensity = 2

And delete them or type '//' in front of it (like in the first line).

Since each scene (flight, editor, etc..) got its own settings, you will find multiple entries and you have to delete all of them.

Rocket In My Pocket · November 10, 2018

@linuxgurugamer so where is this list going to be posted? Or is it just for personal use? Or was it posted and I missed it? Just curious.

It may be nice to have a list of user made/example configs in the OP? At the bottom perhaps, If @The White Guardian is alright with that.

Looking forward to the new features!

I'll probably put it up on Github tomorrow

RealKerbal3x · November 13, 2018

This looks awesome....but I am a bit confused...

@The White Guardian is this just for making screenshots look better or is it just visual enhancements for the game in general?
